Atiyah–Bott formula
In algebraic geometry, the Atiyah–Bott formula says[1] the cohomology ring
of the moduli stack of principal bundles is a free graded-commutative algebra on certain homogeneous generators. The original work of Michael Atiyah and Raoul Bott concerned the integral cohomology ring of .
